Reviews of Aiyana Resort

"In a word … palatial. It’s no exaggeration to say that our 5 night experience was outstanding. The ambience is completely relaxed in what is literally an unspoilt tropical paradise.

The hotel design incorporates nature into the architecture. Every aspect, both large scale and detailed has been imaginatively and innovatively thought through. Unlike some hotels where design is a substitute for substance, the Aiyana functions well.

Our villa’s terrace with sea view, entrance hall, lounge, huge bedroom, even bigger bath/shower room plus an outdoor shower were all tastefully furnished. The large bed was oh so comfortable. There is a small price to pay for the remote location in that the WiFi needs an in-room router to be reliable and the satellite tv reception is unstable.

The tranquil, long, white sand beach is pristine, backed by palms with guests well spaced apart (no rush to reserve a beach umbrella here).

The only significant negative factor about the Aiyana is that the pool is ornamental, better for a dip rather than a swim. This is a pity because at anything much less than high tide the warm, clean sea is pretty much inaccessible because of the extensive exposed sharp coral rocks. So near and yet so far from the sea. In any case, bring rubber sea shoes!

All the staff were ever helpful, the food was good although not outstanding.

Finally our special thanks to Abeid who was hugely supportive, patient and went above and beyond when we needed assistance." See all these reviews: 12n in Tanzania

The special honeymoon massage and the sandbank experience was incredible as well as the beach dinners and entire facility." See all these reviews: 16n in Tanzania
